<p>In any case, a standard Shimano-compatible chainset will fit in a standard Shimano-compatible Hope BB.

Wed, 29 Aug 2012 20:21:46 +0000tartanscarf4125201@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>As above really. I'm thinking of buying a new chainset but they all seem to come with new BB's too. I'm happy with my Hope one though so don't really need to change so could I just stick the new chainset onto that?</p>
<p>Cheers<br />
